Fastest Lotus cars 0-100 kph
Top 40 fastest Lotus cars from 0 to 100 kph. Updated August 2025.
0-100 kph time is the most recognised acceleration benchmark in Europe. It closely mirrors the 0-60 mph measure used in United States.
For powerful supercars, 0-100 kph times are limited by traction - cars with four wheel drive and advanced launch control tend to get better results, even with inferior power to weight ratio or aerodynamics.
0-100 kph acceleration test also suits electric cars, since it is short enough to not overheat batteries and does not require high speed final drive ratio.
